The spermatozoon of M. buxi which belongs to the Cecidomyiidae family have been studied. The spermatozoa have an aberrant flagellum somewhat similar to that of Sciaridae formed by about 170 doublets ranged in rows to form a compact bundle. Accessory tubules and all the other axonemal structures are missing. The sperm is characterized by the lack of acrosome, and by the presence of normal mitochondria apically gathered before the nucleus. © 1974.

Abstract
The spermatozoon of M. buxi which belongs to the Cecidomyiidae family have been studied. The spermatozoa have an aberrant flagellum somewhat similar to that of Sciaridae formed by about 170 doublets ranged in rows to form a compact bundle. Accessory tubules and all the other axonemal structures are missing. The sperm is characterized by the lack of acrosome, and by the presence of normal mitochondria apically gathered before the nucleus. © 1974.
